4. Counter-Notification (DMCA Counter-Notice)

If you believe that material you posted on RemoveTheWatermark.com was removed or disabled in error (e.g., due to a mistake or misidentification of the material), you may file a counter-notification with our Designated Copyright Agent. A valid counter-notification must include:

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will reinstate the removed material within 10 to 14 business days unless the complaining party files a court action seeking to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material prior to that time.
